Agreed.

So far, I think it will be something completely out of the ordinary, and at the same time, totally badass. I want a class that I can listen to Danzig to while playing them, that's how awesome he will be.

Exactly. All murder, all guts, all fun!

Maybe a smart guy that's using inventions and shit to kill his opponent.
He wouldn't fit into Warrior, Mage or Rogue archetype.

Which brings to mind the artificer class from D&D. Very cool stuff.

Which begs the question: how many archetypes have been left unexplored in contemporary fantasy gaming? It certainly seems that we've reached the end of our creative abilities with regards to new ideas. Are all future "classes" simply going to be variants of existing concepts?

It would be more logical if they save some for the expansion.

Oh, absolutely, but there is also the possibility that they come up with completely new material for the expansion. Mind you, someone here said that Blizzard is notoriously unoriginal as far as creating new classes, opting to alter current archetypes in new and innovative ways instead. I'm not sure how accurate this statement is, but it's all food for thought.

It's probably going to be a ranger, guys. A sneaky, deadly ranger.

Rogue -> Amazon -> Ranger

Does the next class have to be human?

If not human, what?

Quote from "emilemil1" »

You are counting D2 plus LoD, which is 7 classes. D3 will only have 5.

It's not unlikely that Blizzard will build on what is has learned so far, and doing so would logically require them to include D2 and LoD as its starting point.

I know it's OT, but can you recommend any good Massive Attack albums? I've only recently started to listen to them, and I love Mezzanine.

Transformers 2.

Um, that actually happens. Haven't you seen The Time Machine?

You probably drink it while skydiving from a space shuttle in its re-entry phase. Right?

You guys are all way too XTREME. I drink water.

If it is a Ranger im gonna be so happy that i was right this whole time.

Oh, dude, it's TOTALLY going to be a ranger!

I find that, unless there's some flavor to back up the decision, implementing features like auras is nonsensical. Just throwing in a "imp aim/mana regen another one for dmg reduct/health regen (sic)" doesn't make sense. Think to yourself WHY a character would have an aura, then work from there.

If the ranged character is something like your generic fantasy ranger, would that character having an aura that increases health/mana (or any other variations along this vein) fit with the theme? I think it's best to tackle questions like this and to think of character concepts before saying, "oh, I think that the character should have an aura."

That would be pretty fly if the class threw boomerangs and p'owned everyone. I would find it comical though if someone just cought the boomerang, although i know this is just a game, when i think about it in real life i picture someone just catching the thing after i threw it. Maybe unless the thing had spikes on it or something idk.

Actually, the more i think about it, the boomerang idea is kindof growing on me. If they made up a whole bunch of skills like multiple homeing boomerangs, where each of them seeks out a target ect and maybe they freeze their target like frozen boomerang or something like vally of exploding boomerangs. XD

That's the thing! It sounds funny at first, but it has some potential! Remember Mad Max II?



It could easily be adapted into the fantasy genre. It's not too far-fetched to expect, say, a higher level character to throw boomerangs made of pure energy (or something along those lines).

I don't know if it's been discussed, but what about a boomerang wielding class?

It was a South Park related joke!
